Aside from Spanish, Sánchez speaks fluent English and French. [88] [21] [89] He is the first Spanish Prime Minister to be fluent in English while in office (former Prime Minister José María Aznar became fluent in English after leaving office). Foreign languages were not widely taught in Spanish schools until the mid- 1970s, and former Prime Ministers had become known for struggling with them as a result.
